Not that either of these facts make a difference, but I really cannot fathom just leaving two awake children strapped into their car seats on a city street in this weather.


Yeah how did the kids not cry. Were the parents maybe in for less than five min? Nah, probably more than 20.


One of the articles said kids were in the car for an hour.


And let's not forget that yesterday's high temperature was 35 degrees. [/quote

For a wine tasting....REALLY???

I hope not.


Why not?

How neglectful do parents have to be to warrant losing their kids, in your opinion?

I judge them. Who cares what color they are.

If they were from a poor socio economic background, they likely wouldn't have been at a wine-tasting at Ris.

No, actually, it isn't.

How is the weather tonight in Arkansas?


Actually, it is. Look it up.



Not in this area. A lot of couples have kids later in life.

You aren't terrible. I just tried to do the same. But apparently I suck at FB searches because I couldn't find them.


Nevermind--I think I found her. Pic with the birthday cupcake and those adorable children?

I think I found her; at least I found someone with kids of the right age and living in DC. I couldn't find him.

I'm waiting for someone on DCUM to come and say they know them and they are wonderful/horrible parents.
